Chapter 45: An Excuse for Regret
"Yes, I don't know what Zhong Ling, this girl, thinks, she chose the profession of teacher at the beginning, it stands to reason that she should pursue stability, how could she think of going south to work hard." Chen Ping also frowned, for Zhong Ling's decision, I'm afraid that a person like him, who has been a teacher all his life and is used to a stable life, can't figure it out, he has a fixed and good income every month, and his life will not have great ups and downs, isn't this very suitable for girls?
Chen Xing and Zhong Ling walked slowly along the sidewalk on the side of the street, Haicheng is located by the sea, enjoying the light breeze blowing from the sea, but it is extremely cool and comfortable.
"Would you like to find a coffee shop and sit down?" Chen Xing looked at Zhong Ling on the side.
"No, it feels good to walk around like this." Zhong Ling shook his head with a smile, "Let's press all the big and small roads in Haicheng tonight." ”
"That's a big project, even the old people who have lived in Haicheng for decades don't dare to say that they have visited the streets and alleys of Haicheng." Chen Xing laughed when he heard this.
"Yes, it's not easy to go through the entire Haicheng, and I don't know how many opportunities I will have to see this city in the future." Zhong Lingzhao said melancholy.
"Look at what you said, don't you just live in this city, you are watching this city all the time." Chen Xing glanced at the other party strangely,
"That's now, and there won't be such a chance again."
"What, I heard that Teacher Zhong meant to leave Haicheng?" Chen Xing stopped in surprise. Urban tycoon 45
"Yes, I'm going to leave the city."
"If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Zhong, your hometown is here, you still talked about it just now, why do you want to leave here instead?"
"My hometown is here, but that doesn't mean I'm going to stay in Haicheng." Zhong Ling smiled and blinked, "I'm going to go south to Yangcheng and work hard there." ”
"Go south to Yangcheng? Be a Southern Drifter? Chen Xing looked at Zhong Ling in amazement, "Teacher Zhong plans to quit his current job as a teacher and go south to find a new job?" ”
"Yes, I'm going to quit this job and go south and start all over again." Zhong Ling clenched his fists and cheered himself up.
For the first time, Chen Xing stared seriously at the seemingly delicate and gentle girl next door opposite, this kind of thought appeared in other women, Chen Xing may not be so surprised, appearing in Zhong Ling, who is doing teaching and educating people, and has a weak appearance, Chen Xing's heart has been greatly impacted, he really can't imagine that Zhong Ling is such a suitable woman as a husband and children
The son can have such a restless and restless heart.
"Well, you're surprised, too?" Zhong Ling's eyes were shining and Chen Xing looked at each other, "Do you also think that a woman like me is most suitable to find a husband with a good family background to marry, and then have children, and live an ordinary life all her life?" ”
Seeing through the other party's thoughts, Chen Xing didn't refute it, nodded his head, and said, "I have always felt that you are not only a woman who looks like this on the outside, but you should also think like this in your heart, it seems that people are not good-looking, this sentence is really not wrong at all." ”
"I never thought of being such a good baby, many friends said that I look like a home wife who is suitable for living a comfortable life, and the future will not be hard, but I have never thought about it in my heart, my heart has always been restless, I especially like to read some women's "sex" business magazines, I once dreamed that one day I could become a strong woman above, in the shopping mall, how majestic it should be." Zhong Ling's whole person fell into a strange state, like a memory, like a longing, "Chen Xing, do you think I'm so stupid?" ”
"No, everyone who has a dream deserves my respect and respect." Chen Xing looked at Zhong Ling seriously, in addition to the first meeting, Zhong Ling's appearance made his eyes shine, Chen Xing also had to admit at this time that this girl with dreams, in addition to her appearance, her heart is more worthy of deep memory.
"You don't think I'm naïve, I know, a lot of people are waiting to see my jokes, waiting to see how I come back with a broken head, and then keep looking for people to cry and regret quitting my job as a teacher." Zhong Ling pursed his lips, and his eyes "shot" an unusually determined look.
"Zhong Ling, I admire your dreams, but the opinions of others are not necessarily wrong, you should indeed make a decision after careful consideration, after all, you are destroying your own stable future, and facing a strange, unknown life, and even an unpredictable future." Chen Xing doesn't know how to persuade such a woman with dreams, people who have dreams and dare to take risks to realize their dreams are admirable, Chen Xing can't bear to break Zhong Ling's dreams, but he has to remind the other party that the cruelty of reality and the beautiful dreams of infinite longing have a gap that is difficult to overcome.
"I know, but I'm also an adult, I have my own independent opinions and thoughts, and I can take responsibility for my actions." Zhong Ling's tone was firm, "This is my long-standing dream, I originally planned to go south with my classmates after graduation, but later considering the actual situation at home, I still came to become a teacher first." ”
"And now, now that you don't need to think about the situation in your family anymore?" Chen Metropolis Tycoon 45
Xing looked at each other.
"I can't say that either, it's a little better than before. My brother is going to be a senior this year, I don't have to pay for long his tuition and living expenses, and in another half a year, he can also come out to find a job and make money, the reason why I will listen to the family's Jianyì first came out to be a teacher, at that time was because my brother had just been admitted to college, the family's economic situation was not very good, my parents hoped that I could be responsible for letting this brother finish college, and now my brother is about to be able to go out of school, I will have less of this concern, I can let go and work hard for my dreams. ”
"After being a teacher for three years, more than 1,000 days and nights of stable life have not wiped out your fighting spirit, it seems that you are also a person who has identified a path and is determined to go down, so it is useless for me to persuade you more." Chen Xing smiled, "Zhong Ling, I can only say bless you, I hope you can fight for a world in that strange city in the south, and I will watch you return home with great expectations one day." ”
"I don't dare to think about returning home, as long as I don't die in a foreign country."
"Look, you haven't started yet, so you're talking about frustration first, which doesn't look like you at all."
"Oh, we've only been in contact for a while, so what do you think I look like?" Zhong Ling stared at Chen Xing with interest.
"You." Chen Xing pondered seriously for a while, and said with a smile, "Today's you have completely subverted my first impression of you, and I think you are a very brave girl." ”
"Girls? Giggles, I'm a twenty-four-five-year-old woman, and you still say I'm a girl. ”
Crisp laughter resounded in the night sky of this city, somehow, Chen Xing vaguely felt that this pleasant laughter was mixed with a little bitterness, such a girl with dreams, the first few years of her life are the most worthy of hard work, but she is willing to be silent for her family and relatives, twenty-four or five-year-old women, has reached the point where it is time to talk about marriage, women are different from men after all, the older they are, for women, it means that marriage will be more difficult in the future, Zhong Ling has to start fighting for his dream at this time, perhaps, even Zhong Ling herself, deep down in her heart, she is also "confused", once she fails, there is no way out.
Chen Xing looked at Zhong Ling in a daze, this handsome girl who couldn't guess her mind might just be holding on to the dream in her heart.
After going around a few laps with Zhong Ling in a nearby park, the two of them sat for a while when they were tired, and Chen Xing finally sent Zhong Ling on the bus back to No. 1 Middle School.
The thrifty Cheng of this girl with dreams surprised Chen Xing, who had always disliked taking the bus in the city
Crowded and unsafe, there are all kinds of "color" and "color" people on the car, and there is a third hand that is "interspersed" in the hidden human cracks at any time, which makes people unguardable, plus the bus driver is basically driving the car like driving a tank, rampage on the city's densely populated roads, Chen Xing always doubts whether those bus drivers like to play with the emergency brake to satisfy the inner perverted stimulation.
Chen Xing originally wanted to take a taxi for Zhong Ling, but was rejected by the other party, it is not very far from No. 1 Middle School, Zhong Ling smiled and said that it is convenient to take the bus, there is no need to waste so many dollars, Chen Xing did not insist on anything, Tong Guò Tonight, he knew that Zhong Ling was a girl who was weak on the outside, but very assertive on the inside.
Back at home, Chen Xing was slightly surprised when he saw his parents sitting in the living room, and then he thought about it, and there was no big surprise, which would make him finally understand what was going on with his parents' somewhat strange expressions when he came back just now.
"Chen Xing, Zhong Ling told you everything." Zou Fang looked at her son, and the look of regret on her face was still there.
"Yes, I listened to her, I didn't expect a girl like her to have such a bold and adventurous idea, to be honest, I was ashamed of myself, otherwise I should have done business with Huang Ming at the beginning, instead of taking the civil service exam and trying to live a stable life." Chen Xing shook his head with a smile.
"What's wrong with living a stable life, look at me and your father, although this life has not been able to give you a rich and expensive life, but it has not allowed you to live a hard life, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, people, sometimes you can't be too greedy, it's good to have a stable life." Zou Fang said disapprerovingly.
"This can't be said to be a question of greed or not, it can only be said that the individual's 'sexuality' personality and even ideals are different, like our family, it is estimated that each other is influenced by each other, so they don't like the ups and downs of life, Zhong Ling lives in such a family, stimulated by the surrounding environment, may have hoped to bring a good life to her family through her own hands since she was a child, so she may have been looking forward to being a strong woman with a successful career, she dares to take risks for her ideals, and she deserves our respect." Chen Xing belongs to the younger generation after all, his parents may not understand Zhong Ling's approach, from his point of view, but he can understand Zhong Ling's feelings, people, only with dreams, can they not come to the world in vain, have suffered hardships, touched nails, fallen on their heels, even if they hit their heads and bled out, as long as they have paid for their ideals and worked hard, even if they fail, at least they will not leave themselves with an excuse for regret in the future
